It would be a tough one but possible, given the openers play sensibly along with the middle orders batters. And Razzak has to play his career best...

Gazi is a born performer, RBX will do better at SBNS, Robiul will be ok too as he is in much better shape (recovering from injury), so Razzak is the last one to perform if he wants to be a test bowler!

My eyes are on only ONE tiger though!!

We'll most likely see the same XI for the 2nd Test, although Al Amin should get a shot. If Rubel does end up playing then this is a do or die Test for him. If he ends up failing then he's going to have to take a seat on the bench for Tests and have Al-Amin get a run. Rubel's had enough chances and it's time he performs. His place in ODIs is more secure though.

I specially don't want him for the sake of watching him bowl. Test is not place for experimenting.

Not going to happen, but I think Al-Amin should play in the 2nd test because he deserves a shot, Rubel got his chances and did not do much, it's fair if he gets dropped in next test. Al-Amin seems ready for the big league. His recent form is pretty good - 18 wkts from 6 games @ DPL playing for the most terrible team in the league. I read few of Al-Amin's recent interview, really impressed about his attitude.

Definitely because he deserves it. His FC average is in the 20s which is great. And most importantly, our pace attack is still very weak. We should see if Al-Amin could be the answer in Tests. If he could then Robiul and Al-Amin could form a good attack.
